FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SEASON OPENER SET FOR THIS SATURDAY
96-03
ANDERSON, Indiana (March 31)---The Trackside Associates,
longtime promoters of the Anderson Speedway, announced that Saturday
April 6th will be opening night for the historic track.
The Hoosier Park Late Models are the top class competing on a
regular basis at the track. They are called stock cars, yet there is
nothing on the cars stock. The bodies, normally formed from aluminum or
fiberglass bear little or no resemblance to a passenger car. Those
differences aside, the class is extremely exciting and fast. Anderson's
Jim Cooper captured the 1995 title over fellow hometowner Ray Fullen.
Recent points champions Bobby Fields (Willow and Vic Hellis were
seriously injured last . They missed the points race, but hope to
return for the 1996 season.
The other two classes both more closely resemble stock cars.
The Figure-8 class and the Street Stocks share rules common with past
American passenger cars.
Markleville's Tom Gossar took the 1995 Figure-8 title after a
heated battle with Rich Boyer. Chris Bair (Anderson) captured last
year's Street Stock points war.
